What effect does human chorionic gonadotropin have
The examination of HCG is of great significance for the diagnosis of
early pregnancy, and is of certain value for the diagnosis, differentiation and
observation of disease course of pregnancy-related diseases and trophoblast
tumor. Blood HCG test is the earliest and most accurate test for pregnancy.
Blood HCG test is usually taken 8-10 days after sex to determine whether there
is pregnancy.
2. Serum human chorionic gonadotropin assay is used to check for pregnancy.
In general, after pregnancy, serum human chorionic gonadotropin, or HCG, will be
elevated. In addition, hydatidiform mole and malignant hydatidiform mole,
chorionic epithelial carcinoma and testicular teratogenic carcinoma, pituitary
disease, hyperthyroidism, ovarian tumor, uterine cancer, gastric cancer, liver
cancer and so on May also be increased. So, it's a case by case analysis. If it
is menstruation to exceed period not to come, if sexual life, check blood HC
commonly, the purpose is to determine to be pregnant or not.
3. Human chorionic gonadotropin protects the embryonic tissue from being
recognized by the mother's immune system, thus attacking or engulfing the
embryo. Human chorionic gonadotropin has a similar effect to luteinizing
hormone, which can make fetal testosterone secretion, sexual differentiation,
and promote the development of secondary sexual characteristics.
